I counted 155 visible ones (so far) Edit: Zooming in on Agua Fresca shows it to be a stilt region there too, so that makes 156 (approx 3,500 homes) Edited November 12, 2020 by LoganPryor 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frigga Freidman Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 (edited) Updated Stilt regions map including the new regions added Wed/Thurs. Unfortunately, several of them refused to rez apart from their names, but Nika's map above shows them in greater detail. (The bulk of the map was screengrabbed yesterday, so the border colors are not up to date.)

Brilynn Roussel Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 (edited) So from what I can count on the world map when I load it, there are 85 regions including the newly added regions that need to go into QA and still have an orange boarder. That is what is showing on my map though. ETA: Also going back to Patch's release thread, It seems like all releases were done between the 15-18th except the log homes which were on April 1st, so I am guessing that next Monday-Wednesday may be the release.

Noobish question: since they have apparently begun cloning some of the region configurations, can we assume the QA was completed on those areas, before they were cloned?

Plus, isn't it US Thanksgiving next week? If so support will be closed on the Thursday - given there's usually some glitch on these big releases, the last thing needed is for support to not be available. That would definitely rule out Wednesday,, and maybe Tuesday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. The templates get a big QA walk through, however once cloned they get another full inspection and finalizing. Nothing is more important than making sure everything is working as much as possible. This is a few hours process on each region. (and there are only 4-5 QA moles that are "certified" to do this process) Edited November 13, 2020 by Squeaky Mole 3 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also count 85 "orange" regions, but the houseboat regions don't have the colored square borders, so they may or may not still require QA. Also, the private island region that was above Fintastic has apparently been relocated. The region artifacts still show on the map, but it no longer has a name. For those using the map to monitor progress, the web browser version of the map appears to update more frequently than the in world version, though it doesn't display the region names. You can still find out the region names one at a time by clicking on them, but that's not quite as convenient. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cloning is only of the layout - the landscaping and house placement. Every single region still has to have full QA of each individual house. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nika Talaj Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Just noticed that another 2 or 3 private regions are in the process of being moved or deleted. I don't know whether this has anything to do with the Belli buildout, but their proximity to the still-kinda-unfinished-looking upper reaches of StiltHaven is suggestive. In any case, looks like QA will extend over the weekend, at the least. Particularly if they're planning to add more regions. Why does this matter? Because! Nika has no property, and very few homes are showing on the land page! Resume hopping, people, otherwise I'll have to clean behind the bookcase in my RL kitchen! And NOBODY wants to do that. 1 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleMe Jewell Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 My guess, based on where they are now, is the second or third week of Dec -- possibly the first week, if the rest of QA goes quickly. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel your pain, because I'm in the same boat - dumped my home earlier this week, went through a few temporaries, but now nothing is showing up. I'd like a temp home for the weekend, but not an old style Linden Home. OTOH, I have things to do IRL as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. My point was that there is no visual clue as to whether or not QA has occurred for the houseboats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthieu Quander Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Zoomed all the way in, some of the orange blocks turn red. At that scale, I'm only seeing 45 that are still orange, including "Hi." I think green means something needs to be fixed on that region, if I remember the color explanation correctly.

Milk Pixelmaid Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 83x22 = 1826 stilt homes! That’s enough for everyone here and then some release them! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nika Talaj Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 (edited) Weeeelllll, there are 5 green dots in upper StiltHaven, and zero in lower StiltHaven. Plus, to my eyes upper StiltHaven is much farther along in 'red-edged' regions. There is only one easily-severed link between the two halves. IF they don't build more regions connected to upper StiltHaven, I suppose it is possible that they could release the upper half as soon as Monday. Even if they added a modest number of regions to it, it might be possible to release by Wednesday. I'm wondering about this because: > Theme releases tend to be early in the week. I've always assumed that is because a release that large may incur support issues. It's happened before, remember the double-rezzed homes in LogLand? As time went on, LL support folks took up the burden of clearing those. > The week after next is US Thanksgiving, which always falls on a Thursday and for nearly all US businesses is a long weekend. As Littleme was I'm sure thinking, fall past that holiday and you're looking at December. BUT the Christmas Expo is Dec 4th-13th, and may involve some Moles. > LL has demonstrated much sensitivity to SL's ability to ease the stress of locked-down populations; they may exert themselves to provide residents and (possible) brand-new US residents with some shiny for the holiday. Or they may not. As Dyna pointed out earlier, it is easier for all concerned to release an entire new theme at once. I haven't heard that Patch has hinted anything to the contrary.

Milk Pixelmaid Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I have a good feeling about today, even if they release a quarter of ready stilts, it would be the best Friday the 13th gift ever. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
